BRISTOL, Tenn.-Va. (March 18, 2025) – The Birthplace of Country Music Museum invites friends and families of all ages to a free concert by the Berea College Folk-Roots Ensemble. The event will be held at 11:30 a.m. ET, March 22 in the performance theater at the museum.

“The Ensemble will be providing a workshop for our JAM Kids earlier that morning and have offered to stay a bit later for a free performance,” said Museum Director Dr. Rene Rodgers. “The group has performed with a number of really amazing acts including The Chieftains, Vince Gill, Guy Davis, and Janis Ian. It will be a wonderful concert for all ages.”

Kentucky’s Berea College Folk-Roots Ensemble plays Appalachian music as its touchstone and branches off into other kinds of roots-based music from there. The Ensemble is one of seven performing instrumental ensembles at the institution.
